Sure, tell that to Romário scoring between two giant Swedish defenders.
But seriously it's been proven time and time again Dybala is better when closer to the goal. That's his habitat. He cuts to the left and curl that shit towards the goal. He's also very good at close encounters, quick dribbling, his constant nutmegging speaks for itself. He's not really fast or fit for counter attacking football, neither is fit for playmaking... Play the kid closer to the goal and watch him kick ass.
